The project is located in Belgium (gps coordinates: ‘50.434913n, ‘3.85913e). The domestic fuel oil tank leaked and contaminated the ground under the cellar and next to the house in the garden with hydrocarbons. The site is divided into 2 parts, one part under the house in the cellar, and one part outside in the bore designed to place the oil tank. The house will still be inhabited during the works of depollution in cellar where 4 burners have been placed. the...
We have launched the treatment of the first of the two batches of our site in Lucciana, France. We applied In-Situ Thermal Desorption (ISTD) to remediate the soil contaminated with Volatile Organic Halogenated Compounds. The desired treatment temperature is 85°C for a treatment depth of 5 to 13 meters. 33 burners are heated to treat the first batch and 51 will be heated to treat the second batch. We are collaborating with Englobe France on this site remediation for EdF.
The site is a disaffected building which faith is to be rebuild for housing and is contaminated with chlorinated solvent. The contamination has been emitted by an aluminum refining process. The site is composed of two distinct rooms for a total of 60m². A 2m soil layer has been excavated from one of the rooms and then has been backfilled with sand cement/concrete. Even there’s a 2m layer of clean soil, for such shallow depth, the heat has to start...
We are happy to announce the treatment phase of our ISTD site in Uccle is launched! As a reminder the origin of this contamination is from leaking oil tanks under a building. The treatment depth is 4 meters and 720m³ have to be treated. 42 burners are used to remediate the site. The soil will be heated during 50 days at a desired temperature of 220° to treat the oil tank contamination. Soil pollution is sometimes neglected because it is often invisible....
A new ISTD project (In Situ) site is underway in Uccle, Belgium. We are currently in the assembly phase and the origin of this contamination is from leaking oil tanks under a building. The treatment depth is 4 meters and 720m³ have to be treated. 42 burners are used to remediate the site. The soil will be heated during 50 days at a desired temperature of 220° to treat the oil tank contamination. Our technologies are adapted even to sites in urban areas...
We are honoured for our appearance on the media L1mburg which shared a video of our presence in the site of Heerlen, where we are treating by thermal desorption Japanese knotweed, an invasive, non-native plant in Europe. As a reminder, we are currentlyt collaborating with Thermal Clean Shift on this project in order to eradicate Japanese knotweed in Heerlen ( Netherlands) using our Smart Burners technology. We are obviously flattered that L1mburg Centraal mentions Haemers Technologies as a hope to eradicate Japanese...
We are treating Japanese knotweed by thermal desorption in Heerlen, the Netherlands. Japanese knotweed (Fallopia japonica) is an invasive, non-native plant in Europe. The plant spreads through stem parts and rhizomes, causing damage to ecosystems, infrastructure and buildings. The municipality of Heerlen is mapping the locations where knotweed grows, and applying management measures and controls. With this unique pilot, the municipality of Heerlen and its partners want to investigate whether this unwanted exotic plant can be thermally controlled. To eradicate this harmful plant, the municipality of...
Haemers Technologies will attend NORDROCS from September 5 to 8, in Oslo, Norway! NORDROCS is a series of conferences and short courses in the field of contaminated sites remediation. What a great opportunity to make discover our technologies! Our HT ambassadors will be Jan Haemers and Aurélien Vandekerckhove. Would you like to meet us personally on the occasion of NORDROCS? Contact us to make an appointment at nina.le@haemers-tech.com We will exhibit following posters and give a short course! POSTERS: "Sustainable Remediation Assessment: The dangers of misrepresenting sustainability to transfer...
A new In Situ Thermal Desorption site is underway in Quaregnon, Belgium. The origin of the contamination is from a residential oil tank and a volume of 40m³ has to be treated. Six burners are at work to treat hydrocarbon contaminated soil. Our thermal desorption technology can be applied anywhere you need it as you can see! Urban sites (outdoor or under a building), large scale sites: you name it! Thanks to our committed team for all the energy and motivation! See our worldwide projects...
We started a new ISTD project (In Situ), in East Kent, UK, in partnership with Ecologia. We are assisting Ecologia's treatment installation (steam injection & air sparging) with the In Situ Thermal Desorption method at depths up to 30 meters with the combustion chambers localised at 9 meters and 22 meters below ground level. There are approximately 8000 tons of benzene contaminated soils. 16 burners, 5 meters apart, will be necessary to remediate the site. This is further proof that by pooling our knowledge,...
